Enchanted Cottage B & B Reviews

A Hidden Gem

on November 07, 2017

Hidden away on a little hilltop in the town of calistoga is the enchanted cottage. We were fortunate to end up staying here at the last minute. Our cottage had more than enough room with a small kitchen, front porch and comfy bed. The price we spent for a night was very reasonable, compared to the other high priced places in calistoga that were way out of our budget. We enjoyed the decor of the place it was simple, yet nicely decorated with the owners pictures thru out the place. Thanks Rebecca for making our stay special we will return!

Great Place To Stay

Great place to stay. Charming cottage just a short walk from downtown. Friendly staff, clean, comfortable. I would consider A Calistoga Enchanted Cottage a bargain considering how much more expensive most places are in the area... I would definitely recommend this place to anyone staying in the area.

Extraordinary

Very tranquil, peaceful, and relaxing with extra's. We were underneath very large pine and oak trees, it's scenic overlooking Calistoga valley area - lots of trees and infinite breaths of fresh air. We were so pleased with the hospitality, the friendliness, the solitude. Cary delivered a breakfast basket each morning, so quietly the birds never stopped singing, the notes were lovely, special, indeed for my wife. A bit more than I anticipated or expected, truly enchanting.

A truly enchanting place to stay

I have stayed here at least 15 times over the last 15 years, and I've always had a great experience. Rebecca and Cary are wonderful hosts. Several times we have brought our dog with us, and they always make him feel welcome too. The cottages are very private and the atmosphere is laid-back. I love Rebecca's photography that decorates the walls in both cottages! The breakfast basket you find on the porch in the morning is a nice, light way to start the day. Relaxing on the porch with a glass of wine, or sitting by the fireplace enjoying the company of friends, you can't go wrong staying here.

Fun Time!!

Had a most fun time at this place over the last valentines day weekend! The cottage was a sweet treat for two people needing a break from life. Wine,fireplace,bathtub i think you get the picture.We walked a short couple of blocks to town for dinner at all seasons at Careys suggestion. Great food to go along with a little cottage upon our return.For us this fit the bill simple, clean, romantic little rustic house on the hill close to nature. Breakfast was a enjoyable assortment of muffins,cheese's fruits,juice and organic coffee. Will be telling all our friends about this hidden little place.

Fantastic Cottage

The little cottage house is very private and further away from the road then the other cottage. Worked out just fine for our anniversary get away. Thank you Cary for the firelog you gave us for the fireplace and the continental breakfast delivered early to our porch.Liked the four poster bed,kitchen, and clawfoot bathtub.Places like these are hard find these days that have their own special charm.Most of the linens seemed rather new also.Thanks again to the staff!

Thank you for a quiet and relaxing weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your suite! The two beds in there worked out perfectly for the two of us. And the morning coffee and basket were perfect. This place is romantic enough for two or has enough space for other people to tag along.

Restful Stay!!

Had a delightful stay at this inn in Oct 2012! Everything meet or exceeded our expectations. Don't know what i can say that hasn't been said already looking at other reviews on here. For us we were able to get to all our appointments at the spas and wineries quite easily due to the great location of this inn. A few steps to downtown but yet secluded. The historic cottage we stayed in had everything we have at home and then some.Sweet, glowing little white lights that come on at dusk on the cottage front porch, a warm greeting when you arrive back for that sit down relaxing home time. the last glass of wine, front porch & fireplace time. We will be back with friends next year and take the other cottage as well and do some partying and some fun time together. We love the Napa Valley.

Quirky and peaceful little getaway

We stayed here for our one-year anniversary and had such a sweet, relaxing time together. It was in the high 90s that weekend, but they already had the a/c on for us, cooling the cabin down. We were met with the same consideration the next day when we came back from a sweltering bike tour - the a/c turned on and a cool cabin waiting for us. The four-poster bed is a little elegance out of place from the shabby-chic quality of the rest of the place, but I loved that incongruity. It was such a comfortable comfortable bed for some very stressed out people looking for a relaxing weekend. We were delighted to find we could walk to the center of town so quickly, and then retreat to our rustic little hideaway at the end of the night. White Christmas lights ring the porch, leaving such a romantic glow to come home to. We loved peeking out the window in the morning to see the breakfast basket on the porch, and then fetching it to eat the simple but wholesome breakfast in bed. SO relaxing. It was too hot to use the fireplace, unfortunately, but they made sure we had a little starter log available even if we wanted to go for it anyway! It's not a 5-star resort, but it's also not plasticky/cookie cuttery. It's a lovely, relaxing place to stay.

Nice homely and private experience

With this being my first time staying at a bed & breakfast, I didn't know exactly what to expect. I am used to hotels, but I did know that during my trip to Calistoga I wanted to stay somewhere homely, inviting, and different for one night, and I got just that.
My lady and I stayed in the suite for one night, and really enjoyed our stay. Upon arriving to the area, you instantly notice it is in a private, almost hidden wooded area. It's a quick walk from the downtown area that has shops, restaurants, and bars. The suite has a nice porch with tables and seats, which you can take advantage of on those warm nights when you want to have a drink or bite to eat in the nice weather. We were surprised at how spacious the inside of the suite was. A living room area with 2 couches, and 2 bedrooms was more than enough for us. There was also another room with a 3rd bed that they will open up for you if you have a bigger party. The place included a mini fridge, microwave, toaster, silverware and cups/glasses, for those leftovers you bring back from dinner, or if you decide to hit the local Calmart for something to eat.
In the morning, you are left a basket containing fruit, croissants, cheese, butter, juice, different types of tea, and coffee with sugar and creamer, to brew in the coffee maker. It's not a big fancy breakfast, but I enjoyed it and it was enough to fill our stomachs for the morning as we planned on hitting a local restaurant for lunch.
I really enjoyed my stay and would come back again. The staff was very nice and even offered free wifi and suggested things to do in the area. If you are very specific, or an OCD neat freak, a stay at a spa resort would probably suit you better. But if you want something more intimate that makes you feel like you are staying at someone's house and are welcome to make it your place, this is definitely one of the better options in the Calistoga area.

If you are into the "corporate owned" predictable scene... the "Martha Stewart Look-a-likes" or "Sunset Glam", this isn't for you...
If you're into ENCHANTING, UNIQUE, ARTISTIC, CREATIVE, CLEVER, QUIET, COZY, COMFY, RELAXING, ACCEPTING OF PETS, CLEAN, GRACIOUS HOSTESS & HOST, with WELCOMING SMILES.... You've come to the right place!
Rebecca has put together an amazing cottage scene. A blast from the past-!!! If this place doesn't get your creative side going, nothing will! I just love the decor, unpretentious Thrift Store excellence! With REAL ANTIQUES that you can actually use! Like the upright piano, depression glass dishes and stone fireplace! Notice the architectural touches... Hansel & Gretel windows, glass knobs, arched doorways. Yes, don't forget the cozy comfy bed, kitchenette amenities, claw-foot soaking tub and lots of places to hang out and just day-dream!
Walk across the street and you enter into the bustle of town. Return "home" and you're in another world!
If you need to decompress, work on that novel, or just re-create, this is for you!
Check out Rebecca's photos, I really like "The Unmade Bed!" She's an artist with cottages to share! Feel the creativity? My pugs LOVED the place. It's so clean and fresh, even with pet visitors!!!
I hope you'll choose to leave the Corporate chi-chi & high $$$$$ stays behind and instead find yourself surrounded with the expression of an artist!
Follow the twinkly lights to The Enchanted Cottages-! ENJOY AND DARE TO DREAM AGAIN!!!

We stayed at the Enchanted Cottage for 2 nights--which wasn't enough. We were greeted and given a brief tour of the cottage. It had everything you would need and was quite private, rustic and romantic all in one. There is a table and chairs for 2 on the porch for use as well as a small kitchen with a small refrigerator and cooktop. We enjoyed the breakfast basket in the morning with the muffins, fruit, juice and coffee. We highly recommend this place if you are in Calistoga.

Reminds us of a place we use to stay years ago. It was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast. Wanted privacy, but also didn't want to be to far away from town.
The cottage was cozy and romantic. Rustic and beautiful in it's own way, a one of a kind find gem. We were able to walk to downtown Calistoga quite easily also.
The cottage has a wonderful comfortable mattress on the bed, we slept well . Liked the basket in the morning with the muffins,cheese,fruit juice and coffee. Didn't use the kitchen for cooking but it looked like everything was there for that.
This place might not work for those looking for a sterile hotel environment. This place is surrounded by woods and vegetation. We do recommend this place for a different experience. Also if you are light sensitive, make sure you unplug the little white lights on the porch before retiring.

CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, & ROMANTIC!!!
We enjoyed every minute of this sweet woodsy place - fireplace, big windows, beautiful view from the bed.
Calistoga - busy little town. we were lucky to find this place. Wanted spa treatments - figured we'd go there, then figure where the wind would lead us after - last minute planners, you've heard of people like us! After spa appointments and a couple of glasses of wine down town, we didn't feel like going home.
But then trying to find a place to stay - something kind of special but still in our budget was just a little crazy. Ran around town for some time looking at places - (seems like a lot of places were booked.. especially in our price range) - finally someone tells us about the Enchanted Cottage - a place a block from down town. So we go to check it out - greeted by a friendly guy who showed us a cottage - the decor at first glance is eclectic, but it's cozy - has an artsy feel to it. - we took it without a second thought - private, BIG ! - a lot bigger then anything else we looked at - not just a room - and a great price for something this nice. Could have brought friends with us - plenty of room - maybe next time.
Anyway - we sat out on the front porch for a while that night and again in the morning until check out time - we didn't want to leave! When you're on a budget finding a place like this on a weekend night in Calistoga - or any night - is hard to find.
Thanks Rebecca for working with us and having such a great place - fun and we slept well. We usually like a hot breakfast in the morning, and they serve a continental style - however the breakfast is a full continental, - and good - they bring it in a basket and you find it there on your front porch in the morning when you wake up. The addition of a hot tub or hot pool would add 1 more stars for us. However we will come back to stay in this cottage again. & again...

A ONE OF A KIND SUITE

My boyfriend and I stayed recently in a suite at A Calistoga Enchanted Cottage and had a wonderful, relaxing time. The Suite we stayed in was very spacious, well maintaned and private. It had 2 bedrooms areas with a living room, and a large claw foot bathtub. The location close to town and all the restaurants and shops was perfect. Also drinking coffee and having breakfast in the morning on the front porch was a perfect start to our day. We will be back soon for another visit!!

Will be back

Sometimes traveling with family can be challenging finding affordable accommodations for a group like ours. So at this place, we reserved the rooms known as the cottage and a little suite.Between the two, there was comfortable room for everyone, to sleep, and to hang out. Rebecca worked out a great deal for us since we took two nights.Deals are hard to come by in Calistoga; in the fall months known as the crush, we found that many places do not give deals at all, even on midweek nights. For us everything worked out great.The two places had enough beds including a comfortable blow up airbed and some futon options for us. And only a 5 minute walk from our wedding party downtown.We would highly recommend this place for it's simplicity and convenience.The place is rustic on the outside, but still , pretty, with all the trees and woods around it. One morning we saw deer right next to the cottage. We found the accommodation to be more than adequate.The service very friendly and helpful; all in all a wonderful stay. We will be returning!

Weekend Away

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time at this place! A very romantic atmosphere; different then any place we've stayed before. The owner and innkeeper are very accommodating and friendly. We stayed in a little cottage on a hill, a good deal away from the main house below. It is very private, with a fireplace, small kitchen, and a wonderful four poster bed. I especially liked looking out into the woods from the huge window that is beside the bed.
Calistoga is a wonderful little town; we had planned to stay only one night but ended up staying a extra night. The second night we stayed in the lower unit known as the suite, since the cottage was not available. Rebecca spells it "The Sweet", but it is a 3 room suite. We loved the fieldstone candle lit fireplace, and the comfortable feather bed. Surprising privacy cosidering it is the front half of the main house. It was also closer to the road than the cottage above. There is a little road noise during the day but but surprizingly quiet in the evenings and the night. These places have old wood shingles on the outside which gives them a rustic look. However the places themselves are slightly European decorated inside. They kind of reminded us of some of our other travels. In the morning they left a basket on our front porch filled with muffins, biscotti, fruit, and other little surprises. I really appreciated being able to sleep in and take breakfast on my own time, and in private. All in all, we had a great time at Rebecca's Enchanted Cottage, and your town of Calistoga.

We stayed at the Enchanted Cottage for three days and loved it. It is very different, peaceful and warm, and our room was delightful. We plan to go back next year. We loved the peaceful, tree-filled woodland area surrounding the B&B, tucked away as it is in such a quiet and secluded country setting. A unusual find perfectly positioned in the Napa Valley, within walking distance of Calistoga but isolated from traffic and noise.

very nice
